INFOMGPGame Physics
Course curriculum
Each of the following lecture notes may changed until a couple of days before the class. Please visit regularly and make sure that you use the last version before coming to the class. As we will not always have the time to correct every exercise during the lectures, the solutions will be published here after each lecture. You are strongly encouraged to solve the exercises at home without the solutions first. For most of the corrected exercises additional explanations are given during the lectures.
You can download the pdf version of the curriculum here.
